1
Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl: flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk together until evenly mixed.
2
In a medium bowl, combine the warmed milk, melted butter, room-temperature egg, and vanilla. Mix gently until combined.
3
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Using a spatula, gently fold together until the flour just disappears. Do not overmix; some small lumps are okay.
4
Place a large skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Add a small amount of butter to coat the pan.
5
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot pan. Cook for about one minute until bubbles appear on the surface, then carefully flip.
6
Cook the other side until golden, which takes just a few seconds. If the pancakes are browning too quickly, reduce the heat and add more butter for the next batch.
7
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate. Serve with generous amounts of butter and maple syrup.
